A man entered a UCLA student apartment Saturday evening after climbing onto the second-floor balcony, university police said.
The student inside saw the man shine a flashlight into her room at the Keystone/Mentone Apartments about 4 miles southeast of campus before he entered about 9:45 p.m., according to a UCPD statement.
The man then fled after the student said “Hello?” according to the statement.
Police said the man had a dark complexion, dark hair in a ponytail, and was about 5 feet 8 inches to 5 feet 10 inches with a medium build. He was wearing a baseball cap, black vest, gray sweatshirt and blue jeans.
No further information was available. The case is still under investigation.
UCPD recommends that students lock their windows and doors.
